Xyla Quest was truly cruel!
Even if Emily Quest was never nice to her, they were still sisters. How could Xyla do such things?
Emily’s words were like spikes being stabbed against Torn Sullivan’s mind. All of a sudden, his world
had been turned upside down.
Is this all true? Tom wondered. He felt deeply annoyed and hateful.
“Alright. Stop talking. I need some silence,” Tom said before making his way upstairs in a tired manner.
Although the wound on his forehead was still bleeding, he completely ignored it. He was deeply
confused by his own emotions.
If what Emily said was true, wasn’t Xyla too cruel?
How could she do this to him when he still cared so much about her?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEmily quickly followed him and held his arm affectionately.
“Brother Sullivan, walk slowly. Wait for me. I’ll come with you,” Emily said.
Tom felt greatly annoyed.
Now that Emily was getting close to him, he felt even more annoyed.
Tom frowned coldly before heartlessly pulling his arm away. He then took quick strides upstairs and
entered the bedroom meant for the newlyweds.
There were words of blessing plastered all over the room in large writing. Even the bedsheet,
pillowcases, and the carpet had been changed into bright red ones. Everything seemed to convey a
message of joy. However, Tom did not feel anything at all, and neither did Emily.
Depressed, Tom sat in front of the dressing table and began to tend to his own wound in front of the
mirror, which also had red characters of ‘joy’ stuck on it.
Too many bad things had happened today. Therefore, Tom was so annoyed that he could barely sit still.
Emily quickly walked up to him before picking up the alcohol-soaked cotton pad and helping Tom with
the disinfection. The unbearable pain left Torn feeling even more annoyed.
“Get lost! I’ll do it myself! Get out of here!” Tom pushed Emily away angrily.
His behavior made Emily feel sad from the bottom of her heart.
“Brother Sullivan, it’s the night of our wedding. Where do you want me to go?” She frowned a little.
“If you won’t leave, I will,” Tom picked up everything he needed to disinfect his wound before walking
out of the door without hesitation.
Although Emily wanted to run after him, she knew nothing good would come out of it based on his
mannerism. Therefore, Emily let out a long sigh while she suppressed the painful feelings. She plopped
down on the large red bed. Although the room was huge, everything felt cold to the touch because Tom

Was this how the night of one’s wedding should be?
Ever since Emily got together with Tom, she had fantasized about their wedding and the night of their
wedding countless times. However, what turned out was completely different from what she had
fantasized. Not only were the glittery scenes and gentle loving absent, there were also a lot of shaming,
ridiculing, and negative news.
Emily once thought that everything would get better after she got married to Tom. However, she had
not expected Tom to face the risk of losing his position as heir. On top of that, she had to spend the
night of their wedding alone.
While Emily thought of the future, she suddenly lost all confidence.
If Tom ended up losing his position as the heir, the glory Emily had been vying for would disappear.
In that case, wouldn’t Emily end up losing more than she gained after all the fights she had gone
through with Xyla?
